  I installed nginx on my alpine racknerd vps

  nice! alpine ftw!

  We just need to get racknerd to add it as an offical image and we are set!

  Yah, might be time to request Dustin to add that as well.

  Should I DM him?

  I try to avoid it, hes probably super busy as is. Maybe send a support ticket and ask about how/when they add new images. Tell them you were interested in alipne as well and know others have been deploying it to racknerd too

  I suggested the same as well.

  yeah hitup their support with a low priority ticket instead. Part of their job and more resources to access that way! Dustin is super, but hes not superman!

  Yup, the support tickets as we have mentioned hundreds of times, are answered swiftly

  I have always had a pleseant experience there!

  Alpine Linux on RACKNERD!

  GIVE ME ALPINE OR GIVE ME DEATH

  As they said in the 18th century

  Who said that?

  I believe it was Linus Henry in speech he made to the Second Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775

  Oh so has to do with the American Revolution then

  yeah its more of a thing over there It was actually a gentlmen named patrick henry but i adjusted it based on what "he said" about alpine linux

  I am guessing he is extremely busy right now. That's the only reason he hasn't joined us in the past few days. So, maybe we could make enough noise here to have it added. Or, you could DM him, as well

  YEah dustin is pretty darn active in here usually. Either really busy now or cooking up the best deals we have ever seen!

  Yah, we all gotta make sure that the hype here stays real and high. Rewards come in time.

  Hype will never end here. Its non stop hype all the way to the end

  Oh yes. To the end and beyond

  Fixed. Pardon, on my phone rn

  understandable! Phone typing is awful

  Loved it in the beginning..now it's become a pain.

  Start brining a blue tooth keyboard with you

  Might have to invest in that. But, I don't feel comfortable typing on those smaller keyboard.

  Nobody said it had to be a small one!

  I noticed a lot of labels are off on the rack nerd data center map

  New york moved to michigan (dont blame them) and chicago has left illinois to name a few

  Hi @Beniskickbutt -- Funny story, I was just talking to @BlazinDimes about this!

  While we've overhauled various sections of our site over the years, the map is one thing that hasn't been touched - it's actually from many years back when RackNerd only operated in a few locations, so it was designed with that in mind. It's definitely long overdue for an update, and I'm going to put special emphasis on working with our web designer to overhaul the map section completely. Needs to be redone from scratch now that we're global and in many more locations, compared to years back

  Nice TY! I was just mostly worried people might use it to study up on their geography tests

  BTW, here's a question to anyone who already uses Alpine on their VPS to host LEMP or a similar stack. Does Alpine's default installation come with a service manager like OpenRC? If not, what do you guys do to start services like Nginx?

  I thought someone mentioned it came with OpenRC or was that an effect of the docker image?...

  The docker doesn't come with OpenRC. Was confirming if the full installation came with it or not

  ah got it.. I saw people throwing it around with openRC being one of the differences vs systemd. I would assume it has to have some sort of service manager so that may be it
